		<description><![CDATA[Autumn is the most vivid season. That's clear enough from the colors, but the visuals are just a veneer on what we actually feel. Autumn is the crisp bite in the air each October dawn. It's the smell of apple pie in the oven, the taste of sweet squash, the loud crunch of leaves crumbling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I went for a walk this morning. It was -6° Fahrenheit. As I've stated before, I like the cold. Even so, I couldn't help but think back longingly to summer as I hurried down State Street, my fingers turning a rather pretty shade of blue. Summer was just a few months ago, but it seems [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don't usually have an issue with not being able to see the forest for the trees. This afternoon, though, even trees seemed hard to find—I was far too preoccupied with the branches. As I walked into the valley, little things, little ordinary things, kept stealing my attention. Here are a few big pictures of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had my first wildflower sighting of the season today, just before Easter. It's good old Caltha palustris, better known as the Marsh Marigold. As their name implies, these plants thrive in wet places. These ones were nestled against rocks and logs at the trickling beginnings of a stream on the family farm. Every year [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[March is the most hideous month of the year in Wisconsin. When the snow melts, it reveals Winter's dirty secrets. Everything that Winter had killed, frozen, and buried now reappears; it thaws and rots in the first warmth of spring like a corpse unearthed and set before the sun. The grass on every hillside turns [...]]]></description>
